About the recipe
Almond fish is a classic recipe that was given at schools in Sweden. An almond-baked piece of fish, usually saithe or cod.
It is a dish that I think is really good, but it contains breadcrumbs which is not ok for us who eat low-carb or keto, so therefore I have come up with my own variant that works better and is gluten free.
Then I also spiced it up a bit with good parmesan cheese as well.
Which fish you want to use is entirely up to you, I like to use saithe fillet or cod fillet, but I can imagine that you can also do this with salmon if you want. However, the basic idea is to use a white fish.
The recipe is for about 6 people.
Ingredients
Instructions
Heat the oven to 392°F (200°C).
If you have frozen fish, thaw it first. Keep in mind that a lot of weight (water) is lost when it is thawed.
Place the fish fillets in an ovenproof dish. Add a little salt and pepper.
Melt the butter and pull the saucepan aside.
Add almond flour, oregano, parsley, parmesan cheese, lemon juice, water and a little salt and pepper to the butter.
It's going to be like a batter.
Spread the mixture on top of the fish.
Sprinkle with planed almonds.
Set in the oven and bake until you have a beautiful color on the "blanket".
Also check that the fish is ready. It takes about 20-30 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish.
Take out and serve with good sides.
If you like sauce, you can make a good fish sauce, but you can well eat almond fish without any sauce, as it will be a little sauce in the dish.
